Live at Crystal Palace

"Here we are Live at the spectacular Crystal Palace Theater. I'm Dave Chisholm and we have a special episode for you tonight." Dave was pacing back and forth across the stage enthusiastically. "You heard it right here, a special episode to help our friends here at Crystal Palace theater get back on the map. Let's bring entertainment to this place for generations to come."

The monotonous white stage lights go down and vibrant colored light comes up in its place. Darien is sitting at one of the chairs his legs slouched on top of the table in front of him. "Dave, what is so special about this episode?"

"What is so special? You have got to be kidding me? I will tell you what is so special. Instead of the normal pair of contestants, we are mixing things up. Their will be groups of five. You heard me five girls and five guys."

Darien pretended to frown. He took his feet off of the table and walked over to Dave, "then what is my job?"

Chisholm laughed, "You're my co-host. So we can keep this Theater of yours up and running." The spot lights went over to Darien. "You all know Darien Shields." The crowd started screaming. Darien had been an actor and later a host during his career before meeting Serena, through Dave. Dave and Darien used to act on "Milo Adventa," Darien played Milo, the trouble maker kept in control by his companion, Archie. The part of Archie happened to be played by Dave Chisholm. They became friends on set and off set. Four seasons later, Dave's best friend Serena Kiera came to the show as Beckann, the shy and quiet girl that won Milo's heart. When the series end not only did Serena win Milo's heart, but Darien's as well.

"Ok, Dave. Let's bring out our contestants. Starting with the guy's team, we have Mr. Medbourne." Darien leaned on Dave.

Dave walked away from Darien, leaving Darien to keep himself from falling. "Mr. Medbourne is a crazy old goat that believes in the fountain of youth." The audience, Darien, and Dave shared a laugh. "Next is Eugie."

"I wonder if we will see any signs of life out of him." Darien joked. He sent thumbs up to Eugie, but Eugie didn't seem to notice. "Our third guy is Peter Hadley, a young boy fond of technology."

"Our fourth contestant is Eckels, a time traveling hunter. Our last male contestant is Thomas Black Bull, a young Indian kid who wants to find himself. I thought he already found himself, if he is here." Dave waves to Thomas Black Bull like he was the most important person on the Earth. .

"These are our male contestants, and for the rest of the night they will be known as the guys. Let's give them a round of applause." Darien started to applaud causing a domino effect on the audience.

The applause died down. "Now let's move onto our team of girls. First of all, here is Lydia Hadley." Dave paused and waited for Darien to fill in the need information.

Taking the queue, "Lydia doesn't like technology, making her and her son polar opposites." Darien joked.

"Next is Emily Gibbs, she is a quaint girl from a small town. She also has knowledge beyond her age." Dave added.

"That will help the Girl's team. Mrs. Hutchinson is our third female contestant. She likes change. There will be a lot of changes on this episode." Darien pointed toward Dave. "Our fourth female contestant is Miss. Bianca, a very bubbly young lady, what do you say Darien?" Dave looked over at his co-host.

"Sweet girl, but not as beautiful as our next contestant, but I think I'm just bias. Our last but not least contestant, my wife Serena Kiera Shields," Darien smiled as Serena timidly walked on stage.

"Come join us for a moment, Serena." Dave waved Serena over.

Serena stopped for a second and took a breath. She hadn't been on Television in two years. Slowly gaining her composure back, Serena walked over to Darien and held onto his arm for comfort. Darien pulled her tighter in. "So Dave, What do you need from me?" Her voice sounded lustrous. Making Darien's knees a little weak, but he stayed in place.

"Who do you want to win?" Dave laughed, knowing that was her act when on stage. Dave caught Darien's action, but didn't want to make a joke of it on stage.

"The girls will win of course, Dave, who else is there to hope to win?" Serena's voice was still sultry. Serena started to giggle.

"What do you think of that, Darien?" Dave joked.

Darien was busy watching Serena walk to her seat. "Oh, I don't think, I just know if that is what Serena wants then that is what Serena will have." Darien smiled as everyone tool their seats for the show to start.

The Show

"Ok, let's get on with the show." Dave smirked.

"Peter Hadley, it's your turn!" Darien shouted, making the audience get energetic.

Peter practically jumped to center stage. "Peter, name a culture that doesn't believe in technology?" Dave questioned.

"No, that can't be a question! Who could live without technology?" Peter sighed and thought for a moment, "The Amish or the Puritans."

"That's correct" Darien gave Peter a high five, "So, Who do you want to be the next victim?"

Peter's face grew cynical, "its Mrs. Hutchinson's turn."

"No, not me, it can't be my turn!" Mrs. Hutchinson whined. "Why couldn't have Pete picked someone else?"

Dave sighed, "Mrs. Hutchinson, can you please just take your turn?"

"Oh, why did it have to be my turn?" Mrs. Hutchinson pouted. "Ok, hold your horses, I'm going." She shuffled towards center stage.

The lights flickered for a second, and then everything went dark. A loud, "My experiment worked!" could be heard in the background.

Mrs. Hutchinson screamed. "I knew something would happen during my turn." Darien rushed over and was trying to calm her down.

The lights flickered again, and then they came back on a few minutes later. "NO, my experiment was a failure." The voiced roared again.

Darien nodded to Dave and Mrs. Hutchinson. He ran off the stage to find out what was wrong with the electrical units. Dave was left to man the show.

Darien ran towards the circuit boxes. What he found surprised him. A man was playing with the circuit boxes. "Who are you?"

"I'm Dr. Heidegger, and I'm working on an experiment." Dr. Heidegger gave a cynical smile. "It seems as I have been caught?"

"Why are you in my theater?" Darien pondered out loud.

"Didn't I just say I was testing an experiment out? Too bad the experiment was a failure, though." Dr. Heidegger sighed.

Darien blinked, before regaining his composure. "I'm glad it was a failure!"

"There more experiments where that came from." Dr. Heidegger teased.

"No you don't! No one is going to ruin this show!" Darien stated as he lunged for Dr. Heidegger's arms.

Dr. Heidegger pushes Darien sending Darien tumbling backwards. Darien thought to himself, 'He is strong for an elder gentleman.'
